An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-3862 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Novell Edirectory. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3862/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3862/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-3862","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3862/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-3862","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-65rr-xh87-mv6j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Novell eDirectory","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in Novell eDirectory by sending a specific LDAP search request with a NULL BaseDN value.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"edirectory","vendor":"novell"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The NDSD process in Novell eDirectory 8.7.3 before 8.7.3.10 ftf2 and eDirectory 8.8 before 8.8.5 ftf1 does not properly handle certain LDAP search requests, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application hang) via a search request with a NULL BaseDN value.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3862","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"novell:edirectory","products":["novell:edirectory"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3863"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3861"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-11-04","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0895","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5091","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5092","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5094","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-10-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4479","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-10-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4480","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-10-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in Novell eDirectory by sending a specific LDAP search request with a NULL BaseDN value.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3862/"}
